The PROJECT

the aim of the project is to create a very long narrative embroidery piece by piece from my photos. it will be in 2 parts: pt1 will be the Senkenberg and Pt 2 Iceland. 
this is the 1st installment, but not actually the first one made. i have to get some better photos before i post.

this is a close-up. i'm still deciding if i should leave the washaway on or not.........i kind of like the layered look.

image was from models doing a show on an intersection in Reykjavik, 2011




more to come
i am trying to do 1 a week and see if the project evolves                                               ali

Random photographs no 1

just an image to keep things rolling along here.
 - if i try too hard to make it significant there will be a year between posts, (specially as none of the others seem to do any!!! )

so here is Dyrhólaey  a lovely spot on the south coast of Iceland that we visited at both sunset and sunrise. i think this shot was a sunset.....but the memory is a bit fuzzy now. the idea was good but the photo is also a bit fuzzy, the  colours are nice though, and i haven't played with them either!

Dyrhólaey
 stunning sunset mood and ever so slightly wonky horizon....as usual......
